[QUOTE="brentbaldwin, post: 1049321, member: 78063"] Update No. 2...I got the new filter on by taking a Dremel and grinding away about 1/16-inch of the motor mount bracket. Then it went right on. I guess my motor mount has shifted and blocked the filter. Let me know if this has happened to anyone else. The funny thing is today I was showing my son how to change his own oil. "Ten minutes!" I boasted. I quit looking at the clock after two hours. :confused: [/QUOTE]
